This market tracks the highest temperature recorded in San Antonio on June 15, 2026. The outcome will be determined by the official National Weather Service Climatological Report (Daily) for that date, which provides the authoritative maximum temperature measurement for the city.
Resolution is based on the maximum temperature recorded at San Antonio on June 15, 2026, as reported in the National Weather Service's Climatological Report (Daily), accessible via the NWS website for San Antonio. The temperature is divided into six ranges: 82°F or below, 83-84°F, 85-86°F, 87-88°F, 89-90°F, and 91°F or above. Each range corresponds to a distinct market outcome. Official resolution uses only the NWS Climatological Report (Daily) data; while other weather sources may provide reference information, they are not authoritative for resolution purposes. Traders should be aware that preliminary NWS data may be subject to rounding and conversion nuances that could affect final reported values.
Prediction market odds reflect real-money consensus from traders who profit or lose based on accuracy, creating a financial incentive to incorporate the latest meteorological data and seasonal trends. Traditional weather analysts and climate forecasters publish point estimates and confidence intervals based on historical patterns and numerical models. This market aggregates dispersed trader knowledge into a single probability, which often differs from any single analyst's view. When this market's implied odds diverge significantly from published forecasts, it may signal either new information traders have priced in or an opportunity for analysts to reassess their models against market-derived expectations.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous order-book mechanism where buyers and sellers submit bids and offers for outcome contracts. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. Each contract represents a discrete temperature range, and the market price reflects the marginal trade at any moment. Traders can enter limit or market orders, and the platform matches them in real time. Liquidity and spreads vary by outcome; outcomes perceived as more likely typically trade tighter and attract greater volume. The price discovery process incorporates all available weather data, seasonal patterns, and trader positioning.
This market resolves around Jun 16, 2026, once the highest temperature recorded in San Antonio on June 15, 2026 is verified against credible public sources. The outcome is determined by official meteorological records from established weather monitoring stations serving the San Antonio area. Traders holding contracts corresponding to the verified temperature range receive their payout, while all other positions expire worthless. Resolution occurs shortly after the close of the trading day on which the event occurs, allowing sufficient time for data confirmation and final settlement.
Major shifts in long-range weather forecasts, seasonal climate patterns, and atmospheric indices such as El Niño or La Niña conditions can significantly influence trader positioning. Updated general circulation models from meteorological agencies often trigger repricing as traders adjust their probability estimates. Real-time developments—such as anomalous heat waves, changes in jet stream patterns, or unexpected atmospheric blocking—may arrive weeks or days before the event and reshape market odds. Additionally, historical temperature records for mid-June in San Antonio serve as a reference point; any revision to baseline climate data or new research on local urban heat effects could prompt market recalibration.
